Col. j l.. Barlow, has disposed OF
his interest in THE Waco EAAMIN EK,

no doubt, fuliy sustail The former
reputation OF tIateXc Kent journal

This bluudor shows how closely
some editors read their exchanges.
The Examiner was not so "dls-
posed" OF aud there has been no such
announcement. The care less brother
will please correct MS error and state
that Mr.. }. Z. Crisp was the purchaser
of Col. BartoWs interest.

Now, would it be right to tax the

The wool men recognize the justice
OF the principle lai 1 q wp, but they
are now drifting to the lacy that
pol tics is system of money making
and money getting, and that ii is the
highest duty of the citizen to vote for
the man whose views favor the indi-
vdusl citizens Industry. A gentle
man in Bosque admits that the tariff
on wool is wrong, but being a sheep
raiser, it puts money in his pocket,
and that he will vote for the man and
the party that favors the highest
tariff.
The farmer who has 10 w,lk in
tariti-taxed shoes cannot hope to out-
str p the fe t footed agc.-Fort
Worth Gazette.
And he that sleepeth under p
blanket cannot hopeto sleep as late as
the sheep man, who pockets so per
cent. of the money he paid for it.
No matter what may be the exact
nature Of the plan agreed upon by the
/ Dallas immigration converts ton, it is
evident Iha' the people OF each section
and county in the stpte must throw
themst Ives heartily into the work
and do al they can to further the
main objects, or the result vii be by
no means satisfactory. Evidently
there will be assigned duties to per
SONS in every part of Texas, for with
out numerous agents but little can be
accc mpllshed Upon such auxiliary
bureaus will devolve important re-
sponsibllilies. such as the collection
of crop, minerals, timber, grazing
and other statistics designed for the
enlightenmento OF the homc-seeke r and

cupied lands OF thu state,

pared tor distribution abroad.
Hence it Is apparent that though
there may be a central bureau its eff
forts will be inetlectiue useless gen
erous and is extended by the people
of every county. That the required
work will be properly performed
there can be no doubt, since il is in
tended to advance the interests OF
the particular locality in which such
work may be observation-disclosures

1t is pitable to see gentlemen bick
eripg over question of SO little i'm
portance as the location of the COM
mittee headquarters. If cities and
citizens caunot rise above these MI
nor matters and reach up to the
great work planned by the Dallas
convention, the movement might as
well end now, for we shall prove our
selves ana the State unworthy of a.,
tention abroad.
